The Blackberry Playbook may have a a bit too brag about when it comes to hardware, despite its smaller screen, but when you compare it to the Apple iPad, it has essentially no applications, with only 3 announced for release date. We have come up with a list of 5 applications that we want and think we will see on or soon after the early 2011 release of the Playbook.
5) LogMeIn: Ignition - This is a tool that lets you control your specified computer or computers from anywhere in the world. No doubt that we will see this for the Blackberry Playbook though for a hefty price of at least $29.99
4) Dropbox - RIM demonstrated their interest in the Blackberry Playbook becoming a medium for businesses and companies to increase productivity and offer more tools, so Dropbox would ba great example. It would be great for businesses, large and small, to share info very quickly, especially if you stock an office with 10 or 20 of these puppies!
3) Twitter - Something along the lines of Twitter for iPad. It's up to Twitter to make this or not. Nevertheless, I am sure we will get a ton of third-party Twitter apps.
2) Netflix - Yes, we understand that the PLaybook supports the god-awful flash, but it would be nice to have a dedicated app. It makes things a lot more simple and organized.
1) Flight Control - Firemint Games have shown the mobile gaming industry that they are capable of producing great games for any platform. One of their most popular games, Flight Control, which made its debut on the iPhone has made it's way to the iPad, Nintendo DS, and even the Playstation Move. I have no doubt we will be seing at least one of their titles for the Blackberry Playbook.

Since the Playbook browser can handle most any site, I wonder if logmein.com would work? Can't wait to get mine to give it a try.
I recently got a blackberry and found this interesting. I like the quote tweet function that you get in the app. I mostly use twitter to share updates, so that was my priority. This was the only one that would give me full screen in the app.
